Oi! =)

I'm Fernanda, Brazilian from Belo Horizonte, currently living in Rio de Janeiro (most beautiful city in the world, who agrees?)

I design for a living, and during my free time I appreciate traveling and connecting to people from other places and cultures, so I travel whenever I have the chance. Love the outdoors, foreign languages, design, art, seeing the world and all that jazz.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope to connect with travelers from all around the world and learn something different from each one of them.

Interests

Music, traveling, art, design, wine, foreign languages, books, cooking, sleeping, nature, chocolate, dancing, singing...

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm completely open minded about books and music. I'm crazy about Brazilian music, but I'm very curious about the art of other cultures as well.

Love listening to samba, MPB, pagode, reggae, rap, jazz, afro beat, soul, r&b, and so it goes! I can easily spend hours reading a book or playing my piano or the guitar... I'm down to talk about music absolutely anytime.

Talking about books, in the moment I really appreciate Bell Hooks, Chimamanda Adichie, and the writer I’ve read the most when I was young was Sidney Sheldon.
